Traveling with endo is no laughing matter, but there are ways to navigate the experience that will make things much easier on you. Conde Nast Traveler writer Megan Dubois reached out to me for just such advice, and I was glad to offer some insights. Here is a brief synopsis of the article, along with a link to the full article below.

Traveling With Endometriosis Can Be a Challenge!

From portable heating pads to contoured pillows, here's what I turn to when my symptoms flare up on the road.

Dealing with endometriosis on a daily basis, or even just during that time of the month, can really put a cramp on your lifestyle.

What Our Patients Say About Their Journey

Testimonial by J.H.

My last appointment with Heather was over 6 years ago but I still think of her every day. I don’t take for granted that I can easily get out of bed, care for my two active and busy young boys, run, play tennis, clean my house, or sit at a desk for several hours at a time. None of these tasks were easy for me before meeting Heather. Eight years ago my car was struck from behind by a tractor trailer that was estimated to have been speeding. I spent 3 years working with...

She was wrong because I had followed the...
